Senegallia

Moving right along from the Loreto plane (pun), we went 70km to Senegallia, a major seaside holiday town, for lunch at Uliassi, 2 Michelin stars. This is the big one. The restaurant was featured in a magazine given to us, which had a helpful map.

The menu was seafood oriented . The waiters were plentiful.  We had a table of 8 lunchers, with four food servers and four liquid pourers. Warm plates came with covered lids, which in splendid choreography were simultaneously lifted in a foursome  for the delectation of the 8 eaters.The glassware was the finest I have ever lifted to my lips. The alcohol began with a  ruby kir royale, and progressed from white to red to the bright iridescent yellow of dessert wine.

 1000 pictures cannot capture these words of the successive courses:

Outside the wavelets of the Adriatic beckoned a paddler or 2, and further along the beach an army of beach umbrellas stood in serried ranks, with (as I think Lord Byron said of the army of Sennacherib) cohorts of purple and gold.
